Dedication

For Atikan, my blue-haired bear

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Blue ink spreads like ants across my brother’s skin. He moves the pen over his palm, dipping into the hollow of his hand and rising up again. Never stopping. Never slowing.

“Archie—” I start to say.

“Hold on,” he mutters. He doesn’t say any more. He doesn’t need to. I learned long ago not to interrupt when his genius strikes. He needs to write the equations down—fast—before the insight flees, lost forever in the ether of his brilliance.
